Advanced Catalytic Materials: Current Status and Future Progress (PDF)

Prof. Dr. José Manuel Domínguez-Esquivel is a senior researcher in the Mexican Petroleum Institute (IMP) in México City. His 30 years of expertise in catalytic materials comprehends novel aspects of catalysis and catalysts, such as synthesis, evaluation, characterization and theoretical modeling. He has been a productive contributor for diverse peer-review Journal of Citation Report journals, and authoring of more than 150 peer-reviewed manuscripts in the field of catalysis, physical-chemistry, metallic nanoparticles and material science. He obtained his doctoral degree with honors from Université Claude Bernard in Lyon, France. He is ranked in senior level-III category of Mexican National Researcher System of Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (CONACyT-México). He has contributed in the co-organization of scientific symposia for catalytic materials in the framework of International Materials Research Congress which is a joint meeting between Sociedad Mexicana de Materiales (SMM) and Materials Research Society (MRS) since 2008. He currently resides at Mexico City.
Prof. Dr. Manuel Ramos is a research professor at The Departamento de Física y Matemáticas at Universidad Autóonoma de Ciudad Juárez, which is a large urbanborder town area between USA and México. In 2010, obtained a doctoral degree from University of Texas at El Paso in Materials Science and Engineering; he has been a visiting scientist scholar at Center for the Integration of Nanotechnologies at Sandia National Laboratory in Albuquerque, NM. His research expertise is focused on theoretical and experimental studies of heterogeneous catalytic materials, nanoparticles and two-dimensional layered nanostructures using a combination of computer-assisted simulations and extensive electron microscopy characterization including in-situ operando techniques and recently atom probe tomography. Has co-authored about 45 JCR peer-reviewed manuscripts in the literature and several conference presentations in
